Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
I’ve been tired of this thinking (hey)
so I’ve drowned it out with drinking (oh)
Tastes like a bitter pill
But I’ll just wash it down
With the taste of something sweet
That some doctor gave me now
And this is a madness
I’m not giving in
We’re shining like diamonds
With fire in our bones
Standing beside you
I’ve a feeling
That I’ll never walk alone
We’re children of the universe,
Don’t you know
Dancing on the edge of time
And it’s ours to own
Just children of the universe
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
Power to the people (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Power to the people (oh, hey, hey)
You know what we want
And we got to get it now
Something’s stirring in the silence
And it wreaks of passive violence
Hold on tight
‘Cause opportunity will take
Couldn’t enter all the suffering
Before it gets too late
Hopes on the horizon
I’m not giving in
We’re the children of the universe
And don’t you know
It’s dancing on the edge of time
Eye to eye
Yes children of the universe
We shine like diamonds
With love in our hearts
We say it’s the end
But I have a feeling
It might just be the start
As I am
A fire in my bones
Standing beside you I have the feeling
That I’ll never walk alone
We’re children of the universe
Don’t you know
Yeah, dancing on the edge of time
We are the children of the universe
Power to the people
